Endangered leatherback sea turtle released back into the ocean after it was caught in Bayelsa fisherman’s net

In Opu-Okumbiri, Bayelsa State, an endangered leatherback sea turtle was reintroduced into the ocean by the Akassa Clan.


The turtle, which was more than five feet long, got entangled in a fisherman’s net. He notified the Safe Earth Foundation staff, and they immediately took action.


Less than 40,000 leatherback sea turtles are thought to remain in the globe.
